The Man United attacker has been in underwhelming form this season and has been named on the bench for the Stamford Bridge clash in the Premier League.
Marcus Rashford has not been named in Manchester United's starting line-up to face Chelsea due to rotation purposes, Erik ten Hag has revealed.
Rashford played just 15 minutes across both of England's friendlies during the international break and came off before full-time against Brentford. But the United manager insists Sunday's clash with Liverpool has played a part in his decision.Asked by MUTV why Rashford was on the bench, he said: "For rotation to keep him and the team fresh through a busy period with another big game on Sunday.
"Recently players from the bench have impacted. Mason Mount. It is a huge impact and it is a good impact to have Rashford on the bench."
